About Jackson Lake State Park

A reservoir anchors this park, drawing its name from the surrounding community that formed around the water. The unincorporated place nearby recorded a population of 131 residents at the 2020 census, and mail for the area is handled through the Weldona post office. This gives visitors a sense of a small, sparsely populated area built around the lake itself.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
